In William Golding’s 1954 novel, the Lord of the Flies, a group of young boys find themselves on a deserted island. Stuck there, they create their own civilization which eventually turns violent and savage. 

The book was a statement on the fundamental nature of humanity.

The book was fiction, but many people have wondered what would happen if such an event actually took place. 

Well, as it turns out, in 1965 it did. 

Learn more about the real-life Lord of the Flies, and if young boys left alone would descend into a state of anarchy, on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.
